I guess it comes with the VIP membership. Eh, might pick it up then.

 

[cmdrdredd]

You get the VIP pack with the limited edition which includes some custom tuned cars, special VIP only multiplayer events, decals, a steel book case, $10 worth of in game tokens, some in game badge, double speed stat boosting.

The following cars are included in the VIP pack.
1965 Shelby Cobra 427 S/C
1987 RUF CTR Yellowbird
1991 Mazda #55 787B
2011Ford F150 SVT Raptor
2011Bugatti Veyron Super Sport

The limited edition car pack comes with these.
2011 Audi RS 3 Sportback
2012 Aston Martin Vanquish
2013 Ford M Shelby Mustang GT500
2011 Maclaren P1
2013 SRT Viper GTS

Every edition even the standard day one edition comes with these.
2010 Audi TT RS Coupe
2013 Ford Focus ST
2011 Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Superleggera


So for fans of the game and people who want to fast track the online races, the limited edition may be worth it. Especially considering that $10 of in game tokens can probably buy you and allow you to upgrade a few cars, sell the limited edition cars back in the game if they aren't your thing and have quick cash.

That is one huge chip.

Holy crap he goes in and out of the game so quickly. Its trivial but its infinitely better than what's on the 360 (nothing)

I'm assuming that's because the game and dashboard are running simultaneously as separate virtual machines. If you've used VMs yourself, you know that moving between them is easy.

This why they have the different operating systems running and all the reserved RAM. This is also why there is no longer a guide in-game like on the 360, it's not needed when you can immediately access the main OS.

damn, that is pretty slick looking i won't lie. and the graphics on zoo tycoon look a tad impressive for that type of game lol.

Bah, what do you know... You're just a console fanboy.

If they made another Rollercoaster Tycoon and charged a thousand dollars for it and the DRM killed my dog, I'd still buy it.

Or if they come with a YouTube video saying its postponed until Dec.

 

[purbeast0]

looks like there is some kind of promo that is going to be similar to every10minutes that they did for xbox360.

http://www.every2minutes.com/

i won one a 360 from the every10minutes contest so maybe i can win one from this too!

 

[cmdrdredd]

Interesting at the bottom of the page...

Auctions open November 5th at 2:01am ET

Does this hint at the consoles being released to the public on that date perhaps?

doubt it. the every10minute contest went on for months before the console game out. i won a 360 like 2 months before it launched.

I didn't know it started before the system released before. Oh well lol

 

[purbeast0]

yeah i'm pretty sure the contest was over before the console released actually. the contest was for launch day 360's. i won 2 360's from 2 different contests, and i remember that 1 of them actually came before it hit the store, by like 5 days or so. they were actually selling pgr3 early at some gamestops so i went and bought that before the system was officially out. i remember jumping into pgr3 online and people were playing, and it was the pgr3 devs and they were like 'how the hell did you get on here?' lol. it was pretty amusing but they were cool guys and i chatted and played with them for a little bit.

The rules state that the console launches in late November.

 

[cmdrdredd]

Does anyone know what the size of the game boxes will be? Are they the same as Blu-Ray and PS3 games or the same as Xbox 360 and DVD cases? I'm going to build a new storage shelf and was wondering if I need DVD sized shelves or if I can measure it out for Blu-Ray size only.

I know the Forza box art is out there but I was unsure if there was a size comparison somewhere or a side by side yet. I couldn't find one yet.

 

[sze5003]

From some pictures they look like the DVD size type. Even the ps4 pics show the boxes a bit taller.
